If you have the same area code, do long distance rates apply?

Say Im calling from Ottawa to Hawkesbury. Both have the same area codes, but when I dial i get a recording that says "This is a long distance call. Please try again and dial one before the number" or something of that sort.



Hawkesbury is in Quebec, right in the next province.

Do I have to pay more ?If you have the same area code, do long distance rates apply?
same area cod can be long distance. I live in St. Catharines and I call another 905 number and it can cost me sometimes. It's by distance not area code. If you get that recording then it is long distance.
If a recording came on and said that you have to dial 1 in front of your number then yes it is long distance and yes it will cost something. It all depends on what sort of LD plan you have to the rate that you will be charged and how long you talked. so yes you will have to pay moreIf you have the same area code, do long distance rates apply?
Ottawa to/from Hawkesbury is long distance and other areas in the 613 area code. Belleville, Kingston %26amp; Cornwall all have the same 613 area code and from/to Ottawa will be long distance. And although Hawksbury is in another province Quebec it doesn't have the Quebec area code of 819If you have the same area code, do long distance rates apply?
If you must dial 1 before the area code, it is a long distance call even if you are calling within the same area code. The rate will depend on whatever long distance plan you have.
